Ringwood branch profile

Welcome to Hays Travel Ringwood where I am proud to be the Manager. I have been in the travel industry since 1980 working in various branches within the company. I have been in Ringwood since 1999 and became Manager in 2009. I have a real passion for travel and love 5* luxury to basic adventure type holidays and Cruising. I also escort groups on soft adventure trips, the most recent having been Nepal, Sri Lanka and in February 2016 Costa Rica. In March I took my group to Vietnam and Cambodia.

Tasha is our assistant manager and joined us in November 2017 from another Hays Travel branch. She's worked for the company for 4 years now and loves to travel, everything from cruises to long haul to short city breaks! Jenny has been with me since 2009 but has worked in the industry for 15 years and is widely travelled. Jenny has just recently got married and had her honeymoon in Mauritius. Leanne has been part of the team for 12 years and has travelled on many family holidays with her young children including Lake Garda, Norway and Majorca. Alex joined us in June 2017 from our Wimborne branch. He's recently travelled to Sardinia, Majorca and Tenerife.

Debbie has recently joined us having returned to travel after having a family. She has over 14 years experience and spent a whole year travelling Australia extensively, making this, along with Thailand and Malaysia her favourite destinations. Roseanne has now completed her apprenticeship and is now a fuly qualified travel consultant. She also has travelled in Europe, USA and Australia, at the beginning of October 2016 she went on her 1st P&O Azura Cruise.

We believe that customer service is vital. We have a good loyal customer base and we continue to expand on this. We love to see new faces and we give all our customers the best possible service. We specialise in all types of holidays from World Cruises, bespoke tailor made itineraries, family beach holidays and UK and Attraction breaks We offer very competitive rates for our Foreign Exchange in the branch and always give preferential rates to our customers.

We were proud to donate a P&O mini cruise to the Ringwood Regal Charity night earlier this year, raising a total of £3,800 towards their attempt to return the cinema in town to its former glory.

Here at Hays Travel Ringwood, we’re passionate about helping the local community and fundraising for worthy causes. We held a quiz night where we had a 1st Prize of £250 worth of Classic Collection Holiday Vouchers along with 6 bottles of wine. Our raffle had prizes donated by Tour Operators and local businesses such as Intrepid, Caribtours, Superbreak, Kirker, Ringwood Brewery, Sainsbury, The Fish, Hotel Chocolat Hamper, Townhouse Hairdressers. Homemade cakes along with tea and coffee were available for a donation. We had a very successful night, which raised an AMAZING £1,005.

Each year the Ringwood office take part in doing a stand at Ringwood Carnival. We had homemade cakes. Along with a Bric 'a' Brac, books and CD's. In 2016 we raised £175.55.

All monies that have been raised over the last couple of events have been donated to Julias House.
